This measure and past voter support makes possible the construction we see today, and keeps Metro fares among the lowest of any major transit system in the U.S. But we’re not going it alone. Last year, we secured more than $3 billion in federal support, including approximately $2 billion in federal New Starts money and more than $1 billion in low- interest TIFIA loans for Phase 1 of the Westside Purple Line Subway and the Regional Connector.

  • LADOT Short Range Transit Plan 2014-2015
    SHORT RANGE TRANSIT PLAN FY 2014-15 March 2015 Federal transportation statutes require that the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro), in partnership with state and local agencies, develop and periodically update a Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) and a Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) which implements the LRTP by programming federal funds to transportation projects contained in the LRTP. In order to execute these planning and programming responsibilities effectively, Metro requires that each transit operator in its region which receives federal funding through the TIP prepare, adopt and submit a Short Range Transit Plan (SRTP) to Metro. _________________________________________________________________________ TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter I: OVERVIEW OF LADOT TRANSIT 1.1 LADOT Transit History ……………………………………………………….…….... 1 1.2 Governance ……………………………………………………………………….….... 1 1.3 Organizational Structure …………………………………………………………after 2 1.4 Transit Services Provided and Areas Served (FY 2014-15) ………………….…....3 1.4.1 Fixed Route System …………………………......................................................... 3 Commuter Express ……………………………………………………………...... 4 DASH ………………...…………………………………………………………...... 7 1.4.2 Demand-Response System – Cityride..……………………………………….……. 11 1.5 Fare Structure…………………………………………………………………….…… 12 1.6 Ridership ……………………………………………………………………….……... 13 1.7 Fleet, Facilities and Equipment……………………………………………….….….. 13 Chapter II: FINANCE, FUNDING AND REGULATIONS 2.1 Operations & Capital Budgets……………………………………………………...
